EL*C uses the word "lesbian" as a broad term inclusive of lesbian, bisexual and queer women, both cisgender and trans, intersex and allosex, as well as non-binary persons who feel connected and related with lesbian struggles and identities. "Lesbian" is a political term that encompass and describe the intersectional identities that compose the life of lesbian communities. The word "lesbian" is the way in which we communicate the political and social struggles of being women and people perceived as such while defying the compulsory heterosexuality and cisheteronormativity dominating our societies, in a world that is fiercely mysoginistic and hateful against the LGBTI community.
